Question

What is the ratio of the speed of sound in neon and water vapours at the same temperature? It is nearest to:

Solution

Correct option is

1.06

 

   

                

γ1 for Ne (mono-atomic) = 5/3; γ2 for H2O vapours (polyatomic)

= 4/3.

A whistle emitting a sound of frequency 440 Hz is tied to a string of 1.5 m length and rotated with an angular velocity of 20 rad/s in the horizontal plane. Then the range of frequencies heard by an observer stationed at a large distance from the whistle will be:

Q2

Two whistles A and B produce notes of frequencies 660 Hz and 596 Hz respectively. There is a listener at the midpoint of the line joining them. Both the whistle B and the listener start moving with speed 30 m/s away from whistle A. If speed of sound be 330 m/s, how many beats will be heard by the listener?

Q3

Two sources A and B are sounding notes of frequency 680 Hz. A listener moves from A to B with a constant velocity u. If the speed of sound is 340 m/s, what must be the value of u so that he hears 10 beats per sec?

Q6

A train has just completed a U-curve in a track which is a semi-circle. The engine is at the forward end of the semicircular part of the track while the last carriage is at the rear end of the semicircular track. The driver blows a whistle of frequency 200 Hz. Velocity of sound is 340 m/s. Then the apparent frequency as observed by a passenger in the middle of the train, when the speed of the train is 30 m/s, is:
